First Reading Galatians 1:6-12

6I wonder that you have been so quickly transferred, from him who called you into the grace of Christ, over to another gospel.
7For there is no other, except that there are some persons who disturb you and who want to overturn the Gospel of Christ.
8But if anyone, even we ourselves or an Angel from Heaven, were to preach to you a gospel other than the one that we have preached to you, let him be anathema.
9Just as we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone has preached a gospel to you, other than that which you have received, let him be anathema.
10For am I now persuading men, or God? Or, am I seeking to please men? If I still were pleasing men, then I would not be a servant of Christ.
11For I would have you understand, brothers, that the Gospel which has been preached by me is not according to man.
12And I did not receive it from man, nor did I learn it, except through the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Gospel Luke 10:25-37

25And behold, a certain expert in the law rose up, testing him and saying, “Teacher, what must I do to possess eternal life?”
26But he said to him: “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”
27In response, he said: “You shall love the Lord your God from your whole heart, and from your whole soul, and from all your strength, and from all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.”
28And he said to him: “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”
29But since he wanted to justify himself, he said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
30Then Jesus, taking this up, said: “A certain man descended from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he happened upon robbers, who now also plundered him. And inflicting him with wounds, they went away, leaving him behind, half-alive.
31And it happened that a certain priest was descending along the same way. And seeing him, he passed by.
32And similarly a Levite, when he was near the place, also saw him, and he passed by.
33But a certain Samaritan, being on a journey, came near him. And seeing him, he was moved by mercy.
34And approaching him, he bound up his wounds, pouring oil and wine on them. And setting him on his pack animal, he brought him to an inn, and he took care of him.
35And the next day, he took out two denarii, and he gave them to the proprietor, and he said: ‘Take care of him. And whatever extra you will have spent, I will repay to you at my return.’
36Which of these three, does it seem to you, was a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”
37Then he said, “The one who acted with mercy toward him.” And Jesus said to him, “Go, and act similarly.”

In US parishes the readings are proclaimed from the NABRE; the text shown here is the Catholic Public Domain Version.

Old Testament readings and the psalm are listed with a link to their chapter: the US Lectionary numbers some of their verses differently from the CPDV, so their text is not printed here. Psalm citations keep the Lectionary’s Hebrew numbering; the CPDV numbers the Psalms as the Vulgate does.
